Alec Guinness (Kind Hearts and Coronets) and Dirk Bogarde (The Gentle Gunman) lead the all-star cast of H.M.S. Defiant, a rip-roaring tale of mutiny on the high seas from the great British action director Lewis Gilbert (Sink the Bismarck!, The Spy Who Loved Me). During the French Revolutionary Wars, Crawford (Guinness), Captain of the Defiant, enters into a battle of wills with his sadistic First Officer Scott-Padget (Bogarde). When Crawford is injured during a skirmish with French forces, Scott-Padget takes control, but the crew begin to rebel against his brutal command, whilst remaining loyal to Crawford and to their country. Adapted by Edmund H North (The Day the Earth Stood Still) and Nigel Kneale (The Quatermass Experiment) from Frank Tilsley's best-selling novel Mutiny, H.M.S. Defiant - originally released in the US as Damn the Defiant! - does not water down its depiction of the harsh realities of naval life.
